My particular position I took on was not what I had signed up to do. I knew the job would be a sales job and that it would be a field position as well. However, it was never explained to me that my job would put me in dangerous situations. The bad neighborhoods, the terrible weather and the higher up management requiring us to work weekends. This job is sold as the best work-life balance opportunity, but it's honestly grueling. It's a really hard position to be in if you have a masters degree. People degrade you at the door and managers also degrade you.

Management has gotten worse and blames MRs for a bad market. They don't know how to manage a team and always threaten to fire you. And imagine having a geek tech guy be your sales manager They keep cutting down bonus. It's harder to make bonus and they cut down the pay. Lot of going door to door having to match a specific demographic in order to sell. Most people don't want to participate. You will be in the country and have a hard time finding homes and also being able to approach them. They won't know your coming so be careful. The home has to put a huge device in their home that takes hours to do then they frequently get calls and visits. Most back out then you're to blame. You have to work 3-8 even when it's dark out. You have to lose your integrity when you tell Homes that we don't see everything when we monitor the internet when we actually do. This may be a good first time job to get some sales experience.
